Very helpful to have a professional look at my situation, explore possible solutions and give advice. You’re a strong questioner and good listener with good ideas how to move forward on something that I had thought was pretty much stuck in the mud.

‘Setting was informal so it was easy to relax and talk. I found the words you pulled out from what I was saying very helpful. I hadn’t heard myself use those words about myself before.’

The meeting/interview with the company went fantastically well. ...I feel that just the two sessions I had with you have already borne fruit. I feel more confident on what I hope to achieve and on how to show what I have to offer to a future employer. For just these, I thank you greatly!

‘I used Catrin as my career adviser when I decided to leave my current employment (of 26 years). She offered excellent advice, coupled with empathy and a real understanding of what I was going through. She produced challenging worthwhile scenarios and plans to guide me through what was a very alien process of looking at new career options. The proof was in the pudding I gained employment in a fantastic new career. I cannot endorse highly enough Catrin who really takes a genuine interest in her clients.’

I had not realised how badly I was managing interviews until I spent a few hours talking to Catrin. She helped me see how rich my experience was and how I should use this in interviews. Catrin also helped me to see how one has to deconstruct and control each interview so one can present the information in the most appropriate fashion. I got the job I was after and I'm sure this was thanks to Catrin!

I sincerely thank you on behalf of Equity Bank & Equity Group Foundation for the invaluable help you offered the Equity African Leaders Program in refining its leadership model. We were excited to work with you and do look forward to partnering in future as we create a generation of transformative leaders who will change Africa and the world.

'I found the clear presentation and explanations of comments and advice given very useful. The tone of the feedback was constructive and encouraging, pointing out areas for improvement and giving concrete examples to improve my application. I feel that the feedback given on my application would allow me to write a much stronger application for future job opportunities and give me a better chance of being chosen for interview.'
